About the Artist

Spiders is a four-piece newcomer band from Gothenburg, Sweden. Formed in February 2010, the band features a female vocalist and is centered around guitarist John Hoyles, formerly of Witchcraft.

They skillfully blend influences from grunge, punk, and bluesy, melodic classic hard rock, showcasing talented songwriting, energetic sound, and straightforward riffs.

Within a few months of their formation, the band performed at the famous Swedish festival, Way Out West, and then began recording.

They debuted in January 2011 with a four-track EP titled "Spiders."

Following this, original drummer Axel Sjoberg left the band to join Graveyard.

The band then welcomed Ricard Harryson (Fox Machine, The Maharajas) and returned to the studio, releasing the 7-inch single "Fraction" on vinyl and digitally in August 2011.

In September 2012, they released the 7-inch single "Weekend Nights" ahead of their debut album, and then completed their long-awaited debut album, "Flash Point."

Spiders is a reliable band that exudes a strong sense of the good old 70s, delivering rooted, earthy, and soulful hard rock with a female singer. Their dignified presence and straightforward, uncompromising rock sound are incredibly appealing.

This debut album, "Flash Point," is filled with powerful sound and passionate emotions poured into it.
